The Western Kentucky Reentry Council is hosting an Expungement Fair in Hopkinsville on February 27.
The event will take place in the Emerging Technologies Center at Hopkinsville Community College from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. that day, where attendees will get the chance to meet with an attorney to get assistance in the expungement process. Expungement is the process in which a record of criminal conviction is destroyed or sealed from state and federal record.
There will be free background checks through the event, and it is a great chance for folks to have their questions answered and take the steps towards a fresh start.
